Marsiling Mall Hawker Centre

Had breakfast at Quan Long Wanton Mee. Strangely there is a Q when the food is far from so so. Several posts over rated this quite well! The sauce is very weak and had only one fried wanton n a few pathetic slices of char siew. the two wanton in the soup is marginally ok. Ingredients/ price (at $5 in ulu place) is grossly disproportionate. Really a captive market. A good portion was not finished as seen in my photo. Disappointed!!! There are several other WTM stalls there which may be better but not visible. Will not visit this stall again for sure although the lady operator was kind.

One of the older foodcourt in Singapore. It's double ceiling with natural ventilation and multiple rows of stalls. Although located away from MRT, it's inside an older, classic mall and beside a stadium and sport facilities, so the traffic is good. People coming to the mall for the supermarket or small charming shops, gym, swimming pool, or stadium can have their meals here. There are a good number of stalls although the food varieties are just so-so. You can't find everything you want in a food court, and there are multiple repetitions, especially drink stalls. The sitting area is spacious, and there wasn’t a day when I couldn’t find seats. To be fair, I was never here on the weekends, so I'm not sure what the traffic is like. The food price is so so. It's supposed to be more economical because of the place, but that is not the case for every stall. Some prices are higher than other food court, some moderate. It's nearby the bus stop, and if you are heading to the stadium, gym, and swimming pool, you can take shortcut through this food court. Only limited stalls open in the morning, and some seem to close forever, maybe it's because of our visit's timing.

So many yummy food here! Lots of variety and cheaper options compared to getting it elsewhere. Visit here a lot during my annual reservists at Woodlands police HQ and it has been pleasant so far. They have a distinctive halal corner and non halal stalls. A lot of similar drinks store serving highly distinctive flavours of the same drinks. Super popular breakfast Ye Lai Xiang with irregular opening hours because having it is all based on luck! The Tong Fong Fatt that I ate a lot of times, but the uncle started becoming rude by deliberately making customers wait, quoting “if you want to eat then you will wait”. The very old school Char Kway teow and Hokkien mee by an uncle with elderly parents, an Indonesia Nasi Pandang that is very delicious, despite being commonly expensive.

Around 8 years ago when this is setup for those stalls at the hawker near the custom, there doesn’t seems to have much stall and is pretty lousy (might also because I visited it during evening time which most of the stalls are closed 🤔) Fast forward to now after COVID, and when most of the new hawker is manage by private entities, this suddenly give me the feeling of “this is the real Singapore heritage” we are talking about. What needs to be improved, you can found here (robot tray return, clean environment (compare among old hawker centre), and the setup that I remember when I was young. You can see all demographics here (kids, teenagers, young adults, family, grandpa/grandma, uncles/aunties) I thought this is what make hawker centre a unique experience in Singapore. Food wise, so far what I try is average or above average, if this is about 1 stall, than is a 3 stars. However, if it is all stalls like this in 1 location, than it is definitely more than 3 stars. So far what I think you might like; - porridge stall - Vietnamese kopi stall that often bahn mi - traditional kopi stall that offer the breakfast toast set that cost $3.80 (kopi/tea + eggs + bread) which taste the same as ya kun - carrot cake stall with some cutting claiming it as 1 of the top 10 carrot cakes in Singapore - wan tang noodles stalls that is nice - home made Chee cheong fan Plus many others yet to try If you are looking for the one and only, the best stall in Singapore, than this might not be for you. But if you are looking for an old vibe of how Singapore hawker was like in the old days, and want some good food, then definitely give this a try when you are around the area.

My sg gf brought me here for lunch near her house at woodlands , we took public bus 🚌 and walked few minutes here . Ambience was quite hot , plenty of food options to choose , I ate Kway chap , need to put the bowl and tray back after eating .

I always eat at the cai fan stall opp the vegetarian stall . Both these stalls , their dishes are nice n the prices are reasonable . The western foods , hokkien mee , carrot cakes , etc ... are nice too . And after my meal , I go up to the 2nd floor n shop at Sheng Siong Supermarket . There are many other stalls selling many different items too .

This is called Parata gear box. You will like it for sure. It is just 6 dollar with 2 egg Paratas.

Sept25___1st time here as it's too far for me. Wow so wide variety of food and all looks good. Very spacious and nice for me. Seems that all were from the old Wdls checkpoint hawker, memories indeed. Had a great breakfast today and will be back should I be near next time.
